The skills section was there for a reason.

This isn't a thing you can do.
Can't really think of much anything to add, Turbo. Considering her temperament, the workshop will, I assume, be possible to make but taking longer than any reasonable Magus would take to construct.


Her magecraft's not suitable for a Workshop, but that means less "it'll take forever to make" and more "it won't be very good".

What makes it worse though, is that you're trying to make it on a boat, and Workshops aren't mobile. So you're not gonna make it.

It is Edison.


Still not properly confirmed. The image is probably faked but the design is obviously legitimate.

@Lonewolf685

pretty much. Honestly, I didn't even think that Fate/Apocrypha was bad, despite it being pretty meh. But GO honestly looks like a parody of itself at this point.


CCC and Apo were harbringers. GO is The End.

I don't have a horse in this race, but we could we tone down the OOC conflict? The Servant's haven't even fought yet and this seems like the kind of topic to leave some lingering bitterness. Not that I don't fan flames but this seems ready to snowball...


This isn't really conflict, tbh. I mean, I'm not a mind reader, but this doesn't seem like the sort of thing anyone's actually getting riled up over.

Not to disagree with you, but I kinda know that. And never cared or do care what that sentence implies is that whatever you do is pointless, which (while being true on a greater level) still would make the very act of RPing based of someone else's work pointless. In sum, there's no need to rub it on people's face, other wise even a game of tabletop RP on a pre-made commercial setting would be 'stealing other's work'.


I think we're talking about different things. I'm just saying we're not Nasu so we shouldn't justify add-ons to the legend that didn't exist in OC applications, because that's stupid and encourages a slippery slope/arms race in which people app increasing levels of wank in a fluid environment, whereas the canon is crystallized.

It doesn't mean this is "pointless" or whatever. In the first place I don't even get what making an RP "pointless" means, since the whole point of it is just to have fun.

You don't imagine how much the "We aren't X." Line disappoints me when playing a fandom RP. It makes everything you look like you're just stealing someone else's work.


???

That's, uh, that's probably because that's exactly what's happening on the concept level. In saying I'm abiding by Type-Moon mechanics, I'm inherently stealing from their concepts to make a premise and internally-consistent world.

<Shocking Truth>, but yeah. I'm sorry if that disappoints you, but I am not, in fact, the writer of the work on which this roleplay is based.

Indeed, which is what I said all along. But the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the King's Crown are there, that's enough to say they are from Jerusalem, just like any half decent historian of the Middle East would be able to. Pinpointing that he's Baldwin is a whole different ball game than calling a general location.


Yeah, that's fine. Given that the Jerusalem cross is hardly something you had to know Baldwin to recognize on face, the conclusion that "he's probably from Jerusalem" isn't out of the question. Anything further, less so.

The equivalent of seeing a guy in an American military uniform and recognizing him as American military would be looking at Baldwin and thinking "this guy must be a crusader", rather than "this guy must be the king of Jerusalem".


Pretty much this. "He's probably from Jerusalem" is fine, "He's probably a king of Jerusalem" is less so.

Still has no basis on Arthur's legends, so it keeps on being baseless BS.

Indeed, but you do know that King Arthur is the blade's owner (doesn't mind if you lived in Japan, or the middle of the Pre-Colombian Americas, you know and respect Excalibur). Knowing that Arthur is in truth Arthuria is another thing, and the reason most get shocked at first, still it's the same thing in a way.


In the actual legend, sure. In the legend in the Nasuverse, no. The difference is that nobody here's Nasu.
the Grail had to create the baseless BS known as Invisible Air


Merlin made it.

It's also not "If you're an HS you know her" as much as "If you're an HS you know Excalibur".
